New footage has arisen from Manchester United‘s 3-0 win over Everton that shows Scott McTominay persuading Alejandro Garnacho to rile up the home fans.
The Argentinian international scored one of the great Premier League goals on Sunday, netting a stunning acrobatic bicycle kick in the third minute of the game to put the visitors 1-0 up.
Marcus Rashford then made it 2-0 after the break with a penalty in the 56th minute – a goal that has seen criticism targeted at regular penalty-taker Bruno Fernandes who ceded his role to the struggling English forward.
A third from Anthony Martial completed the dominant victory for the Red Devils, and compounded the Toffees’ misery, having been handed a 10-point penalty for breaching financial restrictions.
However Garnacho quickly dug the boot in after shocking the Goodison Park faithful, with McTominay pulling him aside during their celebrations and seemingly gesturing for him to go over to the fans and wind them up.

Garnacho can then be seen walking over to the home fans and standing in front of them and gesturing in their direction.
The reaction of the home supporters suggests that he succeeded in his task, with several obscene gestures sent his way as he trudges back to take up his spot for the restart.
While McTominay was keen for his team-mate to add insult to injury, both former captain Harry Maguire and Martial looked to pull Garnacho away and escort him back into position.
It was just his second goal of the season, having only previously netted in the Carabao Cup.
However it was surely one to remember, latching onto an in-swinging cross from Diogo Dalot from the right which came almost to the edge of the box.
The 19-year-old flung himself at the ball and got the perfect connection, sending it back over his head and into the top-right corner of Jordan Pickford’s goal.
Both Garnacho and his team-mates will be hoping for a repeat performance on Wednesday night when they take on Galatasaray in the Champions League.
The visitors are bottom of Group A on three points from four games, and need to win both of their remaining matches to realistically stand a chance of making the Last 16.
